    Khuyen is a Dealing Representative for Stark Contrast Investments. Her dealer has relationships with 20 different mutual fund families. This gave her the flexibility to sell two different types of funds from two different fund families to her client, Bao. $5,000 was invested in the Blue Moon Global Balanced fund and an additional $5,000 was invested in the Orange Sun Asset Allocation fund. Khuyen has been reviewing the performance of both funds and has determined that Bao would be better off being fully invested in the Blue Moon Global Balance fund. Bao had previously signed a Limited Authorization Form (LAF) for Khuyen, so she goes ahead and does not worry about consulting with Bao before making the change.
